dream sculpture

i froze my dreams solidas whims and doubtsthen chiseled from the topa face with high cheekbonessmiling eyes, framed byyaar-wrinkles, full lips...............threateningto break into a smileat slight flutter

slicing, i move to the basecutting a pedestal with motifs

as the dream sculptureis unveiled later that eveningamidst exultations and praisesi summon modest smiles

long after the reception is overmy dreams begin to deliquescei erase a tear or twoand leave to gather more dreams
